Electrical engineering and information technology (M.Sc.)

The Electrical Engineering Master is aimed at graduates of courses with predominantly electrical engineering and information technology content. These include, for example, bachelor's and diploma courses in electrical engineering, information technology and industrial engineering with a focus on electrical engineering.

With the master’s degree, you acquire a second, professional university degree. This will improve your scientific qualifications and professional competence, qualify you for management positions and open up the possibility of a doctorate. The master's degree in "Electrical Engineering and Information Technology" can also be completed part-time. Since this course is listed in the Thuringian Ministry of Education, you can apply for educational leave as part of your studies.
